Duke Johnson Jr. may not play in Week 14.

NFL Network’s Mike Silver says Johnson has been away from the team due to the death of his grandmother and might not be back for Sunday’s game against the Panthers. Fantasy football really doesn’t matter in a situation like this, but Nick Chubb would get a boost as someone that might play nearly every snap if Johnson is out. We’ll update you when the Browns release their final Week 14 status report later today.

MyCole Pruitt catches one pass in Week 14 win.

it went for nine yards. Pruitt isn’t a recommended fantasy option as Tennessee’s No. 3 tight end.

Anthony Firkser caught three passes for 27 yards in Tennessee’s win over the Jags.

Firkser saw an extended role after Jonnu Smith (knee) left the game, but the Titans didn’t need to throw much in a 30-9 victory. If Smith is out next Sunday against the Giants, Firkser—who has somewhat emerged in recent weeks—could be worth considering as a streamer.

Tajae Sharpe (ankle) did not return to Thursday night’s win over the Jaguars.

Sharpe left at the end of the first half, and he didn’t record a catch on four targets. Hopefully it’s nothing major, as Tennessee needs all the help they can get for a playoff race.

Tommy Bohanon gets one target in Week 14.

Bohanon was targeted on a play-action pass by the goal line, but he couldn’t get open on the play (though it looked like he might have been held initially). Jacksonville’s fullback is not a fantasy option.

Taywan Taylor caught six passes for 59 yards in Thursday night’s win over the Jaguars.

Taylor led the team in receptions, yards, and targets (seven), but he just missed out on an even bigger night by dropping the lone incompletion thrown to him on a deep ball (though it would have been a touchdown if he was hit in stride). The second-year wideout has come on over the past couple weeks since returning from injury, but he’s not worth strongly considering in 10- or 12-team leagues next week against the Giants.
